The big brain am winning again! I am the greetest! Now, I am leaving Earth for no raisin.

EDIT: After reading your replies, it occurred to me that too much of my everyday speech is made up of lines from the show. Maybe that’s why everyone thinks I’m weird.

The rest of aren’t normal, and that’s what makes us great! … So, Leela, don’t want to be like us? Or do you want to be like Adlai, with no severe mental or social problems whatsoever?

Second EDIT: I didn’t expect so many responses, but I’ve just been reading them all and giggling to myself. Thank you everyone I really needed this. Keep em coming!

When they're getting pulled down toward Atlanta:

How many atmospheres can this ship withstand?

Well it's a spaceship, so I'd say anywhere between zero and one.

🎵We're whalers on the moon,

We carry a harpoon,

But there ain't no whales,

So we tell tall tales,

And sing this whalin' tune! 🎵

That's not an astronaut, that's a TV comedian! And he was just using space travel as a metaphor for beating his wife.

They say the key to any successful battle is the element of surprise. SURPRISE!

My absolute favorite: You win again, gravity!

Not exactly an iconic line, but I love the delivery:

"Have you heard of the Monks of Deshuba?"

Fry: "I've... not heard of them."

Futurama's great for nerdy science gags, social satire, and pop culture spoofs, but its best jokes are always uniquely stupid twists of language like this.

"I'm going to remind Fry of his humanity, the way only a woman can."

"You're going to do his laundry?"

Edit - the one that had me literally rolling off the couch because I was laughing so hard was, "That just raises further questions!"
